A silver figure wielding a longsword surrounded them, trapping the dark, cloud-like diplomat minister in the center of a silver vortex.
The knights stood ready, and the diplomats, dressed in uniform blue-black robes, formed a formation around one person, like the night sky.
The girl in the center is wearing armor made of a special material, and her white and long skirt flows gracefully like a swallowtail.
Thick armor covered the skirt, its surface gleaming with an iridescent sheen, with magical patterns and ancient runes appearing and disappearing between the gaps in the armor.
Her long, bright silver hair blended perfectly with her armor, like a silver star shimmering in the daylight.
Aurelion, along with her entourage of knights and diplomats, waited quietly on the busy train platform for the approaching magical train.
The surrounding platforms were packed with people, shoulder to shoulder, all eager to catch a glimpse of the princess.
The Karencia Empire never neglected diplomatic matters.
Every year, neighboring countries send delegations here.
The Kingdom of Kant was no exception. As neighboring powerful nations on this continent, their interactions were naturally frequent.
But this time, Emperor Auberleigh's decision to send Aurelion with the diplomatic corps to the Kingdom of Kant was unexpected.
Even seasoned foreign ministers, upon learning of the emperor's decision and seeing Aurelion's figure, had many speculations in their minds.
Clearly, the emperor did want Aurelion to continue the royal rule.
Otherwise, why send her on a visit to another country in the name of the empire on the eve of her birthday?
Aurelion Sol's reputation has recently spread far and wide; she is widely known as the future ruler of the Empire.
The current emperor seems to want Aurelion to achieve more before ascending the throne, in order to demonstrate her leadership to her ministers and the people.
The train had arrived at the station, but no one had boarded yet. The diplomatic corps continued to wait, but no one dared to ask Aurelion questions.
After all, there are still some people who haven't arrived yet.
At that moment, Aurelion's knights guarded him and saw the crowd automatically part to the sides, making way for someone.
A silver figure appeared from the end of the crowd.
She wore silver beast-face armor, with sharp fangs protruding from her massive chest maw, gleaming with a cold silver light.
A long sword was worn at his waist. Although the blade was in its sheath, a scorching aura continued to emanate from it.
The long silver cloak swayed in the wind, like a pair of bright wings.
Gwen appeared at the end of the crowd, leading a group of demi-human guards, looking imposing.
The knights were overjoyed when they saw Gwen's familiar beast-faced armor.
"It's Commander Gwen!"
"Show some respect! He's no longer the Knight Commander, he's Earl Gwen!"
Gwen has resigned from her position as Royal Knight Commander and returned to the Delin family to succeed as patriarch; the knights already know this.
But precisely because of this, the knights admired Grand Knight Gwen even more.
All the knights knew that this family was a legendary existence among knights.
They guarded their territory with unwavering justice, governing the city from the snow-covered plains and defending against foreign enemies.
They are the guardians of the North, upright and resilient.
Those great knights from the North, their names have long been known throughout the continent.
Gwen, who inherited the position of head of the family, is a hero in the hearts of many knights.
Unreachable.
But it seems that there isn't a single knight in Gwen's squad.
They all looked like teenage girls, each wearing a unique animal-shaped mask that concealed their facial features.
Only its mysterious eyes, nose, and mouth were visible.
Its petite figure and the different colored cat and dog ears on its head are a sight to behold for every eyewitness.
However, their distinctive armor, made of a composite of animal bones and cold iron, unlike that of the knights, also confirmed their extraordinary status.
The demi-human guard of the Clevner family.
Everyone knows that the Cleviner family has a close relationship with demi-humans.
After all, only the Clavner family has such a special team.
At this moment, Gwen walked up to the Knights, turned around, and stared calmly at the demi-human group in the distance.
The demi-human stepped forward, treading rhythmically on the floor.
Swish swish swish—
The footsteps of the dozens of demi-humans were almost synchronized, the sounds of their footsteps almost completely overlapping, and their movements were extremely swift, powerful, standard, and dignified.
Their eyes were fixed on the front, and every movement they made was perfect. Their coordination was so good that it was terrifying.
As they walked through the path cleared by the crowd, their voices rose in waves like a torrent.
The onlookers were awestruck by the solemnity and discipline of the demi-human group, and unconsciously took a few steps back.
It was as if that powerful team carried the chilling aura of swords with every step.
The knights were equally stunned.
They never imagined that a team could behave in such a unified way.
The demi-human team before them displayed a level of discipline that was visibly superior to that of the knights themselves.
They all felt inferior to him.
It made even these knights feel inferior.
To achieve this, one must have put in countless hours of effort and shed countless drops of sweat.
They had only heard rumors about the strictness of the demi-human team before, but now that they saw it, it was indeed true.
However... the foreign ministers and knights were all somewhat puzzled.
